Next, the chemist measures the volume of the unknown liquid as  1596.cm3  and the mass of the unknown liquid as  1.49kg .     Calculate the density of the liquid. Round your answer to  3  significant digits. ⋅gmL−1     Given the data above, is it possible to identify the liquid?   yes     no       If it is possible to identify the liquid, do so.   pentane     glycerol     diethylamine     methyl acetate     dimethyl sulfoxide

Measure the diameter of the circle using Ruler A and Ruler B.Given that the actual diameter of the circle is 2.264 cm, classify the following statements that describe the diameter measurement of the circle according to the ruler. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. • View Available Hint(s) Reset Help Ruler A Ruler B The diameter of the circle has one certain digit and one uncertain digit. The diameter measurement has two significant figures. The diameter measurement has three The certainty of the diameter significant figures. measurement is smaller. The certainty of the diameter measurement is greater. The diameter of the circle has two certain digits and one uncertain digit.
